“If we march into that village and we start trying to persecute people for using poison, something that's very illegal, nobody's going to talk to us. We're not going to find out where the poison came from. We're not going to be able to shut anything down. We should take the approach that people are using poison because they're desperate, because they see no other alternative.” – Andrew Stein Andrew Stein is a wildlife ecologist who spent the past 25 years studying human carnivore conflict from African wild dogs and lions in Kenya and Botswana to leopards and hyenas in Namibia. His work has long focused on finding ways for people and predators to coexist. He is the founder of CLAWS , an organization based in Botswana that's working at the intersection of cutting-edge wildlife research and community driven conservation. Since its start in 2014 and official launch as an NGO in 2020, CLAWS has been pioneering science-based, tech-forward strategies to reduce conflict between people and carnivores. By collaborating closely with local communities, especially traditional cattle herders, CLAWS supports both species conservation and rural livelihoods—making coexistence not just possible, but sustainable.…

Get Them Mentally Ready for the Day - Rewire App Introduction 28:14

för 1 year sedan28:14

28:14

Imagine being able to screen your girls before practice to get a true idea of what you're going to get out of them that day? Instead of HOPING you notice the signs. Hoping you don't miss one player among 12-30 players. All so you can get the most out of your limited time with them. And what if that process only took a couple minutes using their phones? Oh and THEN what if each player was immediately given a suggested exercise to boost their mental & emotional state for THIS practice. That's what Rewire does! Listen in to hear how their app is revolutionizing how we manage our emotional & mental stress :) ---- Learn more at https://rewirefitness.app/…

How Culture Kept Us In Coaching 36:02

för 2 years sedan36:02

36:02

Coaching is hard. You know what I mean. Not the on-field stuff. It's the attitudes... The lack of competitiveness... The people talking smack about how you're doing things. It can be draining. Honestly, that kind of stuff can make you want to quit. Alicia and I have certainly both considered it. Many times. But what keeps us coming back? What keeps us grounded, confident that we're on the right path, and unshakable despite other people's opinions? Hands down, it's Culture. This is what we want for you and why we're hosting the Softball Coaches Culture Bootcamp. Tickets are available by the time you're hearing this and we kick off Monday, August 7th. And BONUS - Lonni Alameda will be joining us for a Q&A too! Head to mentalsweetspot.com/bootcamp to learn more. Now onto the episode! ----- It is my most sincere wish for EVERY softball coach to feel the way Alicia and I do when we reflect on our careers this far. If we could reach every coach who truly cared about their girls and wanted to help them grow as PEOPLE... And we could give them the confidence and clarity we have now... We could positively impact MILLIONS of girls. That's why I want you Softball Coaches' Culture Bootcamp. To learn more, head to mentalsweetspot.com/bootcamp…

Culture can be complicated. You have to get 12-20+ players on the same page, understanding what it takes to achieve the goals they want.

But maintaining a strong, supportive culture is honestly THE most important thing we can do for our teams.

Advice from the TOP softball coaches 2:14

för 2 years sedan2:14

2:14

We coaches are contantly looking forward. What's next. Where is there room to improve. What can we do better as a coach? But sometimes the answers are already there for us - if we just take a peek into our recent past. With Alicia on a trip with her daughter's soccer team this week, I was struggling with what to air on the podcast. We've got bootcamp coming up quickly, we have so many lessons we still want to share, but I want to have Alicia here to discuss them... And then it hit me. We already have AMAZING content that I'm certain you could benefit from. So in honor of Bootcamp (doors open July 24!) I'm going to refer you to our past bootcamp special guests to hear how some of the ALL STARS of softball coaching develop their team culture! Simply head to the podcast notes & you'll see the links for our episodes with Florida State's Lonni Alameda, Michigan's Hutch & Bonnie Tholl, Patrick Murphy from Alabama, Sue Enquist formerly of UCLA and Mike Candrea - recently retired from the University of Arizona.

Sometimes You Have to Loosen Your Grip- Mattawan Season Finale 36:51

för 2 years sedan36:51

36:51

As much as we as coaches want to control the situation and do everything in our power to help our girls succeed... T here are some times when we have to realize - it's not about us. Sometimes we have to let go a bit in order to let the TEAM take the reins. And if you've done your job leading up to that point, it's most likely going to turn out even better than you could have imagined. That's what Alicia is talking about today and what YOU can experience once you have your Culture Blueprint in place (more info on that at the end!) For now, let's hear how Mattawan's season ended up! - - - - - Now if you're thinking... I don't know if I'd be able to push through a challenge like that, you're NOT alone. Those low moments can be TOUGH. And there are honestly times when we don't come out of them like Alicia's team did. I know I've had those seasons (yes multiple) where you try and try all season long and NOTHING clicks. It doesn't have to be that much of a struggle. What if I told you there was a proven, SIMPLE process in which to put that trust we talk about so often? One that your players not only buy into... one they help CREATE. That's what we create in the Softball Coaches' Culture Bootcamp ! Kicking off Monday, August 7th, we will spend 3 evenings creating your own unique, actionable Dream Team Blueprint . So your girls can stay motivated, focused and accountable to the things that will help them reach their goals! Doors open July 24th, but you can join the waitlist now at https://www . mentalsweetspot.com/waitlist !…

35:28

Have you ever felt at a loss? Scratching your head... maybe even pulling-your-hair-out level... No clue what to do to get them to CARE? You're certainly not alone. Every coach has been in this spot where you can't seem to figure out what to do to fix what's going on.

But for now, Join in to hear how even this champion, Hall of Fame coach OCCASIONALLY goes through the same thing. ----- We have one more episode to wrap up Mattawan's season after this.

Getting Them To Focus on the Positive - Mattawan's 2023 Season Part 1 23:23

för 2 years sedan23:23

23:23

We've said it before and we'll say it again: just telling them this game is a game of failure DOESN'T make them stop obsessing on their fails. I know you've experienced this! So what is the magic answer? Of course there isn't only one way... but Alicia shares a few great strategies and activities to start training a more positive mindset! ----- Curious where your team stands with mindset?

How to Feel Proud Even When You Lose - LC Finale 19:58

för 2 years sedan19:58

19:58

Coaching is NOT easy. You of all people know that. There are ups and downs - in both on-field performance AND the emotions - that are easy to get wrapped up in. The best seasons are ones where we as coaches can stay out of that trap and use every lesson to build TRUE belief. That's what we talk about today as I wrap up my second season with LaGrange College softball. ----- True pride (and true BELIEF) don't come from winning alone. They come from the lessons learned and the work put in for something bigger than yourself. ----- The real test is how often you can be the best version of you for those around you. What that looks like is different for each team (stay tuned for our next Culture Bootcamp which will be ALL about this.) But it can start with the Cs. How committed are you? Are you the healthy kind of competitive? How unshakable IS your confidence? You can find out and start focusing on your team's mental game today!

Learning Lessons Every Day (Win or Fail) - LC Part 5 20:41

för 2 years sedan20:41

20:41

I think we all can agree - it's MUCH easier to see what's going wrong than it is to notice what's going right. Honestly- that's our job as coaches! But we also know how distracting and harmful it can be to performance when we're focusing only on the mistakes. In today's episode, we talk about how we talk about LESSONS and use a daily routine to keep growing and moving forward - even through some ugly losses. ----- Imagine if you could legitimately get your team to grow (even just a little bit) EVERY time they stepped on the field or grabbed their glove. How much further could they go? How much closer to their potential could they get? Then make it a part of the routine! Every win, every success, every FAIL is an opportunity to LEARN a lesson. Make it count! ----- If you want to start talking about lessons learned with your team, START today! Ask them what lessons they've learned recently and see what they're seeing. If you want to take it a step further, you can begin talking about lessons around their MENTAL game with the 7Cs. Our assessment will give you the language to talk about the lessons they're learning while building a better mindset too. To get started today, head to mss.com/assessment !…

What to Do When the Energy Isn't There - LC part 4 27:39

för 2 years sedan27:39

We've all experienced those games when the team we KNOW they're capable of just didn't show up. The energy was off. They were more quiet than usual... maybe tired? Maybe upset about their performance... Just off. But we can't just chock it up to an off day. So what can we do about it? That's what we discuss in today's episode!…

There's no doubt about it: Culture is the key to a great season. Even if performance isn't quite there, a strong culture makes it worthwhile. Put the two together? You've helped create an unforgettable few months in your athletes' lives. It can feel like a daunting task sometimes though. There are a LOT of culture killers out there and we coaches already have so much on our plates. Today's guest gives us an amazing tool to be able to stay focused on the main thing.

Stronger Relationships, Faster Adjustments - LaGrange 2023 Season Part 3 24:00

för 2 years sedan24:00

24:00

If you're listening to this episode, you've likely listened to Alicia's past seasons and learned the same thing I have: strong relationships are the secret weapon. We've all had that moment where we realized we missed a KEY piece of information about a player that would have changed the course of their game, season or even career. And most of the time we miss that information because we're stuck in the weeds. And that's normal! We have a LOT to do as coaches. If we want to be our best for our teams, at least. But there is a way to do both, that I'm starting to sort out thanks to mentors like Alicia. Ready to get some ideas for doing so? Let's do this!…

Getting Them to Believe in Themselves - LaGrange 2023 Season Part 2 21:37

för 2 years sedan21:37

21:37

The ultimate goal for coaches like us... The coaches who care most about developing the person THROUGH the sport of softball... Is getting our girls to truly BELIEVE they're capable. That they're capable of of improvement. They're capable of executing what they've practiced. They're capable of bringing their best consistently. But you know as well as I do... this is also the toughest thing to coach sometimes. Today I share a couple more weeks of LaGrange college softball and how we're baking these lessons into mental training AND the practice plan. Oh and how it's starting to work ;)…
